Message: [QUOTE="Kooly87, post: 3102413, member: 9326"] I'm sure they would have done if there was sufficient confidence in Boyd to see out the season, but realistically, that's a tenuous prospect at best. If they do have to drop him at some point, the fallout will be bad, but it won't be nearly as bad as if he was the sole Captain and we had to go through the circus of promoting Glenn mid-season. It's such a potential minefield - does hat write Darius off for the year then? What happens if we have to call him back up again etc? Far less risky if they're just both made Captains at the start of the year and if either one is dropped or then re-instated etc at any point, there is far less media circus and potential squad disruption around who has what role. It also means Glenn is the Captain for two seasons most likely, as Boyd probably won't be playing on past 2020, so again less disruption and a smoother transition in the longer term to life after Boyd and then whoever comes after Glenn. I'd say by the end of 2021 we'll have a clear standout candidate again, and the Co-Captain experiment will be rendered redundant. [/QUOTE]
